Ah, I understand what you mean now. You are looking indeed for the thrush operator. I think it should be built into Scala's standard library, but until that happens, you can use the mouse library or build it yourself. Here is an example:

    // Need to define this once somewhere in your project
    implicit class TrushExtension[A](anything: A) {
      def |>[B](function: A => B) = function(anything)
    }
    
    
    // Your application code
    def fun(arr: Iterable[Int]) = arr.map(_.toDouble / Math.PI)
    
    val arr = 0 to 100
    val newArr = arr.map(_*2) |> fun
    
    newArr.foreach(println)  // prints 0, 0.63662, 1.27324, ...

This is maybe not exactly as convenient, but it comes pretty close.

"someA.someB.someC" becomes "someA |> someB |> someC".

If you would call it pipe operator, like it's called in many (Elm, Elixir, F#, OCaml) other languages that have it, people would understand you faster IMHO. It is even discussed for inclusion into JavaScript.

Nice I didn't know that! I still like to add |> on top of it.

"foo |> bar |> baz" just visually parses easier than "foo pipe bar pipe baz"

Looks good! Thanks for the tip.
